Leo is a pure‑Python outliner that treats code chunks as first‑class nodes and can materialize them as real files using shadow nodes and template directives like @others, demonstrated by writing two Python files and updating them live in an external editor. The UI is Qt based, supports macros, cloned views (portal-style reuse), plugins for reStructuredText and completion, and an auto‑parser for sentinel‑free files. Sentinels enable round‑tripping but add noisy markers and collaboration via Git needs care.
